While the dark lore of the game is captivating and very promising at the start, the gameplay is really raw and sometimes even boring. In fact, the outer shell of aesthetics and storyline is really the only selling point of the game, with its core being rather mediocre.

Exchanging items between the settlers is horribly ineffective, task scheduling often doesn't work as expected. Scouts... what's the point in them anyway (especially later in the game)? Progression of the settlers is also something I didn't quite understand. They sometimes age during one scenario, then rejuvenate in the next scenario. Some of them disappear from the selection menu, so it's really hard (and not very rewarding) to stick to uping a solid core.

Hopefully, the idea can be developed further into a more robust gameplay. For now, I would really not recommend this game, unless you're really into the genre.
